Siem Reap 95.<p></p><br />Crossing the Tonle Sap on a heavily armed boat heading into the Khmer Rouge infested marshlands '95. Just visible in front is an armoured naval patrol boat and we had fifty cal machine guns mounted in skiffs on our port n starboard sides. We were not taking chances.This was the badlands. It was also beautiful. And I had just fallen in love with Liz, featured. This was my idea of a heavenly honeymoon. Everything fascinating and terrifying about life ram-packed into a day. A gov anti Khmer Rouge unit had been accused by the UN of going rogue and kidnapping for ransom, maintaining a secret prison in the marshlands, murdering those without ransom money to pay and dining on their livers. All the usual lovely stuff. So armed up to the teeth, the gov took us across the lake and into the marshlands. The purpose was to show us that there was no secret prison ie there was no massive old colonial fortress with bars. But you didn't need that shit. Out there there was no escape. You were upriver in Col Kurtz territory. We stopped off on a nearby little island where jittery gov troops were dug in with deathly seriousness in a unprecedented disciplined manner. These guys were not messing around. And whatever went down as sun did too was real Heart of Darkness drama. Sometimes the war seemed distant, almost quaint. But not out here. That's why there were three other gun boats escorting us. Tried to interview some locals about prisons and prisoners but with gov officials and soldiers all around, we got nowhere. Adding later credibility and added horror to the report was the subsequent attack on a UN official outside his home in Phnom Penh. Assailants stole his car. With his 3 year old daughter still in the back. She was later dumped outside the royal palace. A supposed act of mercy as it was a place she would soon be found. Not so merciful was the fact they shot the toddler in the leg. This was a daughter of a man who worked for the office that produced the report about the secret prison way out on the lake. So we're now back on the lake. Starting the return journey. Feeling a bit more relaxed. Thinking this is some holiday. But despite all the colourful and panoramic vistas and the fact that we were way way way off the still to emerge tourist path, there was the incoming from the brutal backdrop of violence, war and tragedy. Fresh love and novel passion was doing a good enough job at providing Kevlar for my soul and keeping the horrors at bay. But you were not allowed to just sit and dig sunsets. Not in this show. So it was good to have company as distraction. And all of the accompanying intensity of 'foxhole romance.' And Liz was thrilled to lig along. And presumably to be with me. Hopping the helicopters and boats without question. I was being treated like a big shot. If it wasn't so comical I might have tried -and then failed - to spin it as impressive. But enough about me. The entourage on the boat stopped off at floating crocodile farms and other fishing villages. Although most of the big floating fishing villages had disappeared. The Khmer Rouge had pulled off a successful campaign to ethnically cleanse the area of Vietnamese fishing people who lived in boathouses in floating villages along the great lake. Attacks culminating in a 93 massacre of around 40 villagers led to a mass exodus down the Mekong to the Vietnamese border. There was very little sympathy forthcoming from most Cambodians at the time. The usual show. Brutality and beauty. As King Sihanouk said: "We smile but we also kill." What a day. <div><br /></div><div>Pic by me.</div>Barricadehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02147036235750336993noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7820791305316551421.post-81866912027373068192021-12-04T07:05:00.006-08:002022-10-07T16:05:40.320-07:00We smile but we also kill. Genocidal Buddhism<p> Wow just spotted it's 30 years since the signing of the Paris peace accords that slowly brought an authoritarian peace to Cambodia and set me on the road back to Phnom Penh. I had bribed and hustled my way there in 90. But Saddam Hussein ruined my gig by crossing the Kuwaiti border as i crossed the Vietnamese Csmbodia one. With the arrival of the UN mission, Western embassies, NGOs dreamers schemers writers grifters adventurer-seekers war junkies and n out n out lunatics this once isolated capitsl became a wild east goldrush town. You could hop a UN helicopter to conflict zones and be back the next day eating fine food and telling tall tales with some of the most marvelous people I had the pleasure to meet. It was a toxic mix of beauty, genocidal trauma, deadly politics and fascinating characters like King Sihanouk. Every day was a Graham Greene novel. The place fucked your head in every possible way. The dwindling war could still be deadly as dear friends discovered and poor peasants trudged away from annual dry season offensive with biblical stoicness. War had become part of the national dna. As Sihanouk said " we smile but we also kill." They did both with gusto. On a meta level the opening of the country made the secretive xenophobic Khmer Rouge less tenable. Western, Chinese andThai backing slowly shifted to the Phnom Penh government, many of whom were ex Khmer Rouge. Everybody killed. So you were forced to make pragmtic judgements about who killed less. We had a rave in a graveyard. And there was something kind of sinful about it. But the politics was intoxicating. The work was relentless. As long as you banged out fast and accurate copy- which Sambath Reach RIP and i did with aplomb aided by Brian Hansford, Carol Livingston and Liz Gilliland - nobody interfered with you. This needless to say led to some outrageous behavior. Life was cheap in all senses. As were drugs, booze and guns. I hadnt any problems with drugs or booze but i drew the line with guns i was a rare joutno who never carried anything more dangerous than a wild .mouth, an observent eye and a can of mace. I turned 30 there and left 4 years later. I recall saying to my dear friend and Master Musician of Joujouka manager Frank Rynne when the band opened the 200,000 plus Glastonbury festival with an Islamic prayer and some ancient Sufi rock n roll that this was the most fun I had since Csmbodia. It was a similar heady mix of politics poetry, rock n roll and angelic propaganda. Pure beauty. But cheers to all my Cambodian mates. It took real courage to be an independent voice at that time. We were all return ticket revolutionaries. You guys were the real deal. Shame our ranks have been so decimated by untimely death. Seems to go with the territory. But fuck me, it's been hell of a privilege. Dropped in and out of Bosnia and Africa but never really felt the same intoxicating sense of riding raw and raucous history again.</p>Barricadehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02147036235750336993noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7820791305316551421.post-135412105389534132020-04-04T07:41:00.001-07:002020-04-04T07:41:57.681-07:00Kevlar For The Soul by Kevin Barrington for Liz<iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="270" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/Lg2i1Or3Yqo" width="480"></iframe>Barricadehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02147036235750336993noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7820791305316551421.post-28161075598010672092020-02-05T03:45:00.000-08:002020-02-05T03:45:45.504-08:00Kevlar For The Soul<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Cambria; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;">
And catch his voice.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Cambria; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;">
In its loving reassuring tone<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Cambria; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;">
And he is saying<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Cambria; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt;">
Don’t panic, relax now<o:p></o:p></div>

The fact<o:p></o:p></div>

You won’t be alone<o:p></o:p></div>

Excuse, this is like my notebook.<br />
And by sticking it up - not that anyone is realistically going to read it - it just ups the ante on me to go and continue to work on it.<br />
It's a perfect subject for a poem.<br />
And it's twice now the wonderful John Cummins has said I should be poeming this story and he's right.<br />
So here's the raw byproduct of a couple of hours work.<br />
Gonna have to do some cutting.<br />
Get all the gear to the correct strength.<br />
Get the dates right.<br />
And remember the murky detail of that civil war in England.<br />
Where the miners were sacrificed for the chavs.<br />
And the neo-liberal fascist fucks could not even get the trains to run on time.<br />
And the IRA - the self appointed leaders, the bullying scum and the flip side to the Maggie coin - only had to get lucky once.<br />
Thanks motherfuckers you really added to the experience.<br />

<h2 style="box-sizing: inherit; color: #383f44; font-family: "Blogger Sans", "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Roboto, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 1.6em; margin-bottom: 0px;">
It’s a fine brisk November morning when Dublin.ie meets up with Ed Bowden at his office in Blessington Basin, the north side’s secret park. But we are not here to talk about Ed’s job as chief of parks today. No, we are talking about another curious string to Ed’s professional bow.</h2>
<div style="box-sizing: inherit; color: #383f44; font-family: "Open Sans", "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Roboto, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 1.1em; line-height: 1.8em;">
Curious, quirky and colourful. Because Ed is the Dublin City Council vexillologist. “He’s the what?” I hear you say. Well join the club, I said it myself. But if you are stuck for the answer, we’ll give you a clue. A clue that comes from a recent Nobel Laureate who told us “The answer my friend is blowing in the wind, the answer is blowing in the wind.”<br style="box-sizing: inherit;" />Flags. It’s unlikely Dylan had flags in mind, so let’s grab Webster’s dictionary. ‘Vexillology’ is the study of flags. And Ed is the city’s vexillologist. In more common parlance, Ed is the DCC flag man. And there’s quite a range of duties involved. “It varies. But It would be unusual for a week to go by without me doing something involved with flags,” he says.“There’s the national flag, the EU flag and the Dublin City Council flag flying permanently on the roofs of the <a href="http://www.dublincity.ie/main-menu-services-culture-and-amenities-events-dublin-city-event-application-process-film/civic" rel="noopener" style="box-sizing: inherit; color: #44a6f2; font-weight: 700; text-decoration-line: none; text-transform: uppercase;" target="_blank">CIVIC OFFICES</a>, the <a href="http://www.mansionhouse.ie/" rel="noopener" style="box-sizing: inherit; color: #44a6f2; font-weight: 700; text-decoration-line: none; text-transform: uppercase;" target="_blank">MANSION HOUSE</a> and <a href="http://www.dublincity.ie/node/14412" rel="noopener" style="box-sizing: inherit; color: #44a6f2; font-weight: 700; text-decoration-line: none; text-transform: uppercase;" target="_blank">CITY HALL</a>,” Ed says.</div>
<blockquote style="box-sizing: inherit; color: #44a6f2; font-family: "Open Sans", "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Roboto, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 1.6rem; font-weight: 700; line-height: 2rem; margin: 2.75rem auto; max-width: 46rem; padding: 0px 2rem; text-align: center;">
<div style="box-sizing: inherit; font-size: 1.6rem; line-height: 2rem;">
We put three or four cable ties on them now to try and stop the guys with too much booze and too little history</div>

<div style="box-sizing: inherit; color: #383f44; font-family: "Open Sans", "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Roboto, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 1.1em; line-height: 1.8em;">
“We see more of the national flag now because up until a few years ago the national flag was not allowed to fly after dark,” Ed explains. That all changed about four years ago when the Taoiseach’s office amended the protocol, saying the flag can fly at night as long as it is floodlit. The national, the EU and the Dublin City Council flags still need to be changed regularly, as they get dirty and old. Then in addition to these flags there are some 140 distinctive big flag poles along both banks of the Liffey that need to be taken care of. Flying big 12 foot by 4 foot flags, these flagpoles are used to promote different events in the city – whether it’s <a href="https://dublin.ie/living/things-to-do/festivals/" rel="noopener" style="box-sizing: inherit; color: #44a6f2; font-weight: 700; text-decoration-line: none; text-transform: uppercase;" target="_blank">FESTIVALS</a>, culture or sporting matches.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: inherit; color: #383f44; font-family: "Open Sans", "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Roboto, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 1.1em; line-height: 1.8em;">
As we spoke the Green, White and Orange was flying in support of the national team’s match the following night against Denmark. Being fair-minded chaps, Ed says “we also had both the Irish and Danish flags flying on the three bridges: Butt bridge, O’Connell bridge and Grattan bridge...<a href="https://dublin.ie/living/articles/the-vexillologist/">CONTINUES </a></div>

Trump same as Hilary.<br />
Devoid of decency, logic and principle.<br />
Amidst a category of obscene mendacious drama - corrupt, nepotistic, sexist, bellicose and racist -<br />
Trump has provided us with the email scandal, the Benghazi scandal, the Goldman Sachs scandal.<br />
Just pick your favourite Clinton scandal!<br />
And Trump has done it.<br />
All in a few months<br />
Everything this terrifying sociopathic piece of filth has thrown at Clinton over her long career, he has done in a few months.<br />
Hey bravo<br />
And despite all the Soros boogeyman tales, decency ain't got no Koch Bros, no Mercers, no Bannons. And above all no Russians to propagandise the toxic turds in the<br />
cesspit that is the Trump swamp.<br />
What's more, these are just some of the Trump turds the toxic shite house tries to pass as policy.<br />
"Killary"<br />
Say the Trump dupe scribes.<br />
Their Don ain't no don.<br />
Dictatorial yeah yeah yeah.<br />
You're fired.<br />
Fired up.<br />
But it's all peace.<br />
Peace and Putin and love baby.<br />
Love<br />
Bar a little water-boarding<br />
And -oops sorry towel head citizens - turning Raqqa into a parking lot.<br />
Bombing chunks of Syria n Iraq back to the Stone Age sure.<br />
But you wouldn't find the pragmatist Trumpster hanging with the terrorist theocrats in Israel and Saudi.<br />
No drinking no neo-con cool aid.<br />
No dreams of drive-ins armoured drive throughs,<br />
Tehran Thunder Roads.<br />
Abrams after Abrams<br />
Stryker after stryker<br />
Strangelove Doc<br />
Trump grunts and fellow alpha Hefner Weinstein apes<br />
Hey hey Trump is here!<br />
Grab em by the pussy<br />
So no more nerdy neo-con heroes<br />
Junior Kissinger Jew boys<br />
Sending dumb deplorables to certain death.<br />
Far from old reliables,<br />
Black lung cooking meth.<br />
Mind the fucking mines.<br />
No DC choirboys singing Benny's tunes<br />
Not when Don waves the baton.<br />
When Don wields the baton.<br />
Don wields the baton<br />
Black lives don't matter no more<br />
And Nazis go a marching<br />
Dem niggahs better stand.<br />
No. No. No.<br />
On your knees<br />
Off your knees<br />

Human waves<br />
Of the Bannon Brigades<br />
Of the teahadi hordes, <br />
All led on by Kushner n lil Miss Incest,<br />

And ah ah the scent the scent<br />
of awaiting virgins,<br />
All led on by the 'stars'<br />
Look at the stars<br />

All itching for paradise<br />

<h2 style="background-color: white; box-sizing: inherit; color: #383f44; font-family: 'Blogger Sans', 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Roboto, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 1.6em; margin-bottom: 0px;">
Down by the Secret Garden – Blessington Basin</h2>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: inherit; color: #383f44; font-family: 'Open Sans', 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Roboto, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 1.1em; line-height: 1.8em;">
On the south side, the secret garden was always the Iveagh Gardens. But in recent years music, comedy and food festivals have meant that that garden isn’t so secret anymore. So these days to find the city’s true secret garden, you have to head north side. Up O’Connell St, then North Frederick, cross Dorset and on up Blessington until you come to the black wrought iron gates. In you go. And you’re there.</div>
<div class="wp-caption alignleft" id="attachment_23735" style="background-color: white; box-sizing: inherit; display: inline; float: left; font-family: 'Open Sans', 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Roboto, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 1.5em; margin-right: 1.5em; max-width: 100%; padding-top: 5px; text-align: center; width: 330px;">

The Blessington Basin, a perfect little gem of a walled park with seats and walkways around the edges of what the locals call ‘the duck pond’. The park is surrounded on all sides by quiet residential areas and the couple of old doors in the walls further enhance the secluded magical feeling. And those lucky enough to live on Geraldine St and Primrose Avenue, which back onto the park, enjoy stunning views.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: inherit; color: #383f44; font-family: 'Open Sans', 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Roboto, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 1.1em; line-height: 1.8em;">
Originally constructed as the Royal George Reservoir in 1810, fed by the Royal Canal from Lough Owel, it continued to supply water to the north side of the city until around 1885. Right up until the 1970s the reservoir also provided water to two of the city distilleries, Jameson and Powers. Dublin Corporation subsequently took over the basin and turned it into a public park – albeit one with a ‘private’ feel.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: inherit; color: #383f44; font-family: 'Open Sans', 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Roboto, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 1.1em; line-height: 1.8em;">
But the passing of the years was not kind to the park. “The ravages of time and sporadic acts of vandalism have taken their toll on the former reservoir…” the Dublin Tribune reported in 1990. “Much of the embankment along the water’s edge is subsiding. Iron railings are leaning dangerously close to the water… seating alongside the sides of the reservoir is regularly vandalised… a bricked up toilet provides an unattractive addition…” the paper added.</div>

As Dublin played host to European City of Culture in 1991, the Goethe Institute paid for Dieter Magnus, a German “urban repair specialist”, to come up with a new design. But as Gerry Crowley tells us in his history ‘Basin At The Broadstone’, Magnus’ design met with resistance from the locals who cooled on the idea of German generosity. However, it did spur the local residents and businesses on into a flurry of fundraising activity. With added funds from the Corporation and with work provided by FAS trainee schemes and corporate donations of materials, renovations finally went ahead. President Mary Robinson and Lord Mayor John Gormley officially opened the Blessington Basin we see today in late 1994. The secret garden was back in business....<i>continues</i></div>

This was from Sept 2016. And is still just as pertinent.<br /></div>

It's the standard con. Blame the other. Warn the mark about the ones over there. Don't trust them. Implicit in the cautionary tale is the presumption that you can trust us not them. It's a standard trope that any world traveller, well worldly wise world traveller, will instantly recognise. My old girlfriend Anne Moran n I had a term for it no matter where we were. In fact it became short hand for scam artists -apologies to all the honest decent Turks in question: Anatolia man. Out backpacking the Turkish coast in those halcyon days before the beaches - we left our safe European homes for - were bespoiled by the bodies of Syrian kids, the gravest threat we faced were the herds of men attracted siren like by Anne's red hair. And adding to the allure of the red hair was Anne's spellbinding asset.<br />"Ms Anne you look like Ms Pam."<br />That's Pam from Dallas.<br />Far away Dallas. But that was cool. Sanitised. Safe. American Dream.<br />No. No. Come here Ms Anne. (I was on the borderline of being tolerated and ignored. And I also seemed to serve as a guide to what was sexually acceptable: if I put my arm around Anne, beach Lothario felt he could too. But every move came with a cautionary tale:<br />Beware Anatolia Man.<br />Anne's legions of admirers and Anatolia cautioners grew vastly when food poisoning laid me low.<br />Back on my feet two days later, it was near impossible to pay for a meal or groceries.<br />Everything was a present for Ms Anne. The more genuine the gift the less intense the warning about Anatolia man.<br />A couple of his greatest foes, however, rendered our life impossible. They wld follow our every move. They wld lie beside Anne on the beach whispering sweet warnings of Antolia man. Out snorkelling with conveniently loaned flippers n mask, I wld look to shore to see Anne's red hair sandwiched on her towel by two black haired gents. Both whispering terrifying tales of Anatolia man as they inched up the towel.<br />Too much.<br />The next day we hopped the bus to Istanbul.<br />20 hrs later we walk out of an Istanbul bus station.<br />Only to hear a taxi horn blaring.<br />"Ms Anne, Ms Anne," a man screamed.<br />"Beware Anatolia man!" the taxi driver screamed.<br />Actually that's a lie.<br />He screamed<br />"Ms Anne I meet you in Dacha," referring to the coastal down we had just left.<br />During a wonderful week in Istanbul, we ended up in a late night bar. A wild dive joint. Dwarfs dancing on tables. A reek of underworld. Around the same time I noticed our dodgy drinking partners were packing pistols I realised they were not asking me the price of my hotel room. But how much for a sojourn with Ms Anne in a hotel room. As I informed Anne Anatolia man was actually at the table, bad lieutenant was warning me about the local Anatolia men. I forgot the name of their place of origin.<br />Dodgatolia<br />But we got out of that and many other such scrapes around the world.<br />In far flung villages in the Vietnamese highlands, it was beware Saigon Man. In Saigon the scammers wld caution: Beware Cambodia Man.<br />And always throughout the following decade or so, whether talking to the local policeman or late night tuk tuk driver, we wld get the supposed friendly warning that actually signalled dodgy intent.<br />"Beware Anatolia Man!"<br />Watch out for the other, I caution, as I rob you.<br />It became our private warning buzz word.<br />"Anatolia man is here."<br />"Your friend's from Anatolia!"<br />So when it comes to that racist, lying, cheating, daughter leching, hate spewing, tax hiding, piece of filth that is <a class="_58cn" data-ft="{"tn":"*N","type":104}" href="https://www.facebook.com/hashtag/donaldtrump?source=feed_text&story_id=10155551678828584" style="color: #365899; cursor: pointer; font-family: inherit; text-decoration: none;"><span class="_5afx" style="direction: ltr; font-family: inherit;"><span aria-label="hashtag" class="_58cl _5afz" style="color: #4267b2; font-family: inherit;">#</span><span class="_58cm" style="font-family: inherit;">DonaldTrump</span></span></a>, I got one thing to say - and with apologies to the good people of Asian Turkey -<br />BEWARE ANATOLIA MAN</div>

That’s the sort of vibe you get from writer and performance poet, <a href="https://www.facebook.com/johncumminspoetician/" style="background-color: transparent; box-sizing: inherit; color: #44a6f2; font-weight: 700; text-decoration: none; text-transform: uppercase;" target="_blank">JOHN CUMMINS</a>.</div>

John would argue that Bob Marley has a place at the table too. “Bob Marley was huge where I was growing up. You’d hear him out of literally every window. And sure Dalymount Park was one of his last gigs.” John cuts a curious figure. Skinny. Tall. Thin. Bearded. But with a wild braided bardic beard, not a hipster one. Overall there’s a gentle, affable groove to his tripiddy-hop style. <img alt="city-of-words-john-cummins_0135_360x420" class="alignright size-full wp-image-15982" height="420" src="https://cdn.dublin.ie/wp-content/uploads/City-of-Words-John-Cummins_0135_360x420.jpg" style="border: 0px; box-sizing: inherit; display: inline; float: right; height: auto; margin-left: 1.5em; max-width: 100%;" width="360" /></div>

So this poetry business? How did it all begin? Well, not that he makes a big issue about it, but John grew up in Darndale. And poetry was a pursuit you didn’t broadcast. It was kind of secret and furtive, he says. But words intrigued him right from a really young age....</div>

<span style="background-color: white; color: #1d2129; font-family: "helvetica" , "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">How a suspect president used the war on terror to change/subvert the world and sculpt the domestic US landscape. Giving birth to the world of suspicion. Suspicion. Not inequality. Suspicion. Them. Out there. Out to get US. A new world - aided by the internet and defined by government lies - provided fertile ground for the marginalised and the loons to join in, in the execution, the assassination the death of fact. Post fact broadcast by the net and nourished by trauma. All that overseas wars and domestic financial meltdown shit. All those coke head big swinging dicks who robbed and scammed with total impunity. But look we are old, established, integral, too big to fail. Throw the fucking dice. Who cares? Impunity. Occupy. Occupy the fucking toilet. Don't make me laugh. Laugh - like the great white/black hope that was Obama. Barack death of hope. Occupy the flagrant blatant Wall St excess. Bulls. Horns. Toredor. Keep the red flag flying? Fuck off and die. Bankers bailed out. Homeowners evicted. Out there ongoing warfare. Back here the mugging of globalisation. The seismic slap - manual goes digital. Get off yr arse. The buds not for you. The Mexicans are downing it. All of it. All this. And the Muslims. All the fucking immigrants. Somebody got to take the rap. Snowden says Big Brother is on the line. And who the fuck is flying the black helicopters. Russians. UN. Democrats. Liberals. And again the disappointment of Obama. Uppity. Downer. The emasculation of the globalisation. Balls. I got balls. A Glock too. Don't mess with me snowflake. And then treason? The Republican party? Get your head out of the meth lab and you can smell the robber barons lurking behind the party. What's going down man? Are you an American citizen? Extraordinary. Inequality. Militarisation. Rendition. Water board back to the Stone Age. Their families too. Enter a conman. White rage. Appalachian desperation. Snake oil salesman. Lies. treachery. Sociopath. Creature of the net. Reality tv. Glass beads sted of Glass-Steagal. KKK. Nurembourg. Walls. Immigrants. Rapists. Bad hombres. Crime. Gangs. Drugs. Carnage. Pure crystal rage. In the mirror a sociopath. In the white house, sociopaths. Up above the whine! The whine! The whine! Reaper. Drones. Hell. Fire. And brimstone! Shit. Just a wedding party. Hey it's a rock n roll world. Look! Russians in the cloud. In line. On the line. Raining golden showers. Who took my privilege? Send in the hookers. I want it back.Clowns. Back now. You hear. Don't talk too me about technology. Goddamn gay marriage. Uppity niggahs. Michele's arms. How very monkey. Donald- i know where I come from -Trump. Prez pervert. Porn star first lady. Smile! Terror. Fear of her sociopath. Tweeting in the meth-amphet dawn. Up there. Way up there. In drone land. Swamping the drain. Oiling the oligarchs. Fracking. Not Putin up with it. Dissent. Vlad wouldn't. There's a man. Fascism comes to America wrapped in a flag, tweeting insanity. And supposedly carrying a cross - doesn't seem that necessary anymore. Discrimination is the new family value. Them. Them. Them. Us. Us. Us. US is US or Them? Dig it. Dig in. Battle lines drawn. Here comes the war. Time to fight. Now or never. Hopefully see you on the far side. </span><a class="_58cn" data-ft="{"tn":"*N","type":104}" href="https://www.facebook.com/hashtag/resist?source=feed_text&story_id=10155111946138584" style="color: #365899; cursor: pointer; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; text-decoration: none;"><span class="_5afx" style="direction: ltr;"><span aria-label="hashtag" class="_58cl _5afz" style="color: #4267b2;">#</span><span class="_58cm">RESIST</span></span></a></div>

<br />
<br />
<h2 style="background-color: white; box-sizing: inherit; color: #383f44; font-family: 'Blogger Sans', 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Roboto, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 1.6em; margin-bottom: 0px;">
The Duchess of Duke Street</h2>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: inherit; color: #383f44; font-family: 'Open Sans', 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Roboto, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 1.1em; line-height: 1.8em;">
Wrapped from head to toe against the hostile elements, surrounded by a riot of colour which cuts a sharp contrast with the grey February day, meet the flower ladies of Grafton Street.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: inherit; color: #383f44; font-family: 'Open Sans', 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Roboto, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 1.1em; line-height: 1.8em;">
They say the ladies are “the heart and soul of Grafton Street” and what helps save the road from becoming just another English high street. You’ll find the ladies bringing both wit and colour to the corners of Chatham, Harry and Duke Streets.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: inherit; color: #383f44; font-family: 'Open Sans', 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Roboto, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 1.1em; line-height: 1.8em;">
Tina Kelly tells us she’s been selling flowers all her life, starting off aged 12 helping her mother when Grafton St still had two-way traffic. She has seen a lot come and go from her perch on Duke Street. Tina tells Dublin.ie that one time she even met The Duke himself. “Yeah I met John Wayne.” “Sure I met them all,” she adds. “Sean Connery… I was talking away to him, Liam Neeson, Pierce Brosnan, Lisa Stanfield. I met an awful lot of them. And sure Eric Clapton, well I was talking to him on the street for nearly two hours and I hadn’t a clue who he was.”</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: inherit; color: #383f44; font-family: 'Open Sans', 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Roboto, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 1.1em; line-height: 1.8em;">
A natural born story teller, you can tell Tina enjoys the banter that comes with the trade. Many of the customers are obviously regulars as there’s lots of first name usage. Sister-in-law Susanne, who mans the Harry Street corner, says “you have to enjoy talking to people.” And in case we hadn’t noticed, she adds: “Now I would be a talker!”.....</div>

I blame Bush and the whole WMD lie for the degree of alienation that allowed a snake oil salesman like Trump come to town.<br />
All those kids going off to die for a lie.<br />
While Cheney et Blackwater all get rich.<br />

Hope?<br />
Dope!<br />
But most of that was down to the nihilistic Reps.<br />
The GOPS that are letting Trump run riot unrestrained, are cowering in cowardice or are actually supporting him.<br />
But these fucks have shown us their patriotism.<br />
They were prepared to fuck their country over just to get one over on that 'niggah' in the White House.<br />
Niggah in the White House.<br />
A smart one too.<br />
Uppity.<br />
Jesus Clinton was bad enough.<br />
But Hussein from who knows where.<br />
Show us your birth cert.<br />
Yet the clown rallied the loons.<br />
Pointing out it's called the White House.<br />
And Michelle's arms.<br />
The audacity.<br />
Yet now we have Trump with his daughter in the house.<br />
His 'hot' daughter with a great body.<br />
His daughter he would like to date.<br />
Who he thinks about having sex with.<br />
Hitler meets King Lear.<br />
Then Iago Bannon.<br />
Whispering flattering facist dreams in his Trumps ear.<br />
Visions of concentration camps.<br />
Rounding up all the Othellos.</div>
<div style="font-family: inherit; margin: 6px 0px;">
And Melania Macbeth?<br />
The price of ambition.<br />
Just cos you're a high class hooker doesn't protect you from a sociopath John. </div>
<div style="font-family: inherit; margin: 6px 0px;">
Incest, plots, covert deals with foreign powers, talk of civil war.<br />
Game of Thrones goes to the White House.</div>
<div style="font-family: inherit; margin: 6px 0px;">
So.<br />
Yo Mr Chomsky we ain't got no flying dragons.</div>
<div style="font-family: inherit; margin: 6px 0px;">
And the fascists got the drones.<br />
And there's not even military and security professionals sitting there adding more voices, perhaps even challenging their use.<br />
No. No.<br />
We are all talk about our vets and our military.<br />
But could you wait outside please.<br />
Can't have people meddling in Bannon's assassination plans.</div>
<div style="font-family: inherit; margin: 6px 0px;">

It’s an addiction. It’s life threatening. It’s awesome.</h2>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: inherit; color: #383f44; font-family: 'Open Sans', 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Roboto, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 1.1em; line-height: 1.8em;">
Huddling together in the bitter cold, on Friday the 13th, under a weak and feeble January sun, they all argue that there’s nothing better. Sure, there’s dramatic stories of nearly dying. But the group is adamant that the buzz is worth it. Great, they say, for the mental health. “It’s the perfect anti-depressant,” photographer Barry Delaney says. Listening to them, you hear the language of addiction, of love, of religion even.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: inherit; color: #383f44; font-family: 'Open Sans', 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Roboto, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 1.1em; line-height: 1.8em;">
Welcome to Sandycove’s famous Forty Foot and its crew of year-round swimmers. It’s almost like a cult. But the freezing water keeps things real.</div>
<div class="wp-caption alignright" id="attachment_15629" style="background-color: white; box-sizing: inherit; display: inline; float: right; font-family: 'Open Sans', 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Roboto, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 1.5em; margin-left: 1.5em; max-width: 100%; padding-top: 5px; text-align: center; width: 380px;">

And there’s no mistaking the sense of community. Of camaraderie, wit and banter. “It’s like a great pub,” Barry says. Indeed a few of the swimmers say they were a little too fond of the booze in their day. Here it seems they’ve found nature’s 12 steps. But get to the last step here and you still have to dive into the freezing sea.</div>

“Yeah it’s an addiction with me,” Peter Brady says of his 30-year habit. “I didn’t miss a single day last year. I would feel absolutely guilty if I did. I am retired. It’s something to do and there’s always a bit of fun,” he says. Barry Delaney’s ocean journey started when he was struggling to give up drink. He had been shooting swimmers. And was intrigued. “I thought maybe I’ll give it a go.” And he did. And felt better for it. “I found it helped me deal with all the stuff that is going on in my head.” Barry lives just two minutes from the sea. So for him, it’s nature’s caffeine and therapy all in one. He gets up. He dives in. “Then it’s yeah, let’s go, let’s face the day.”</div>

Artist Gary Coyle’s ocean plunge ended up with him making quite a splash on the international art scene. “I didn’t start swimming for artistic reasons,” he says. But he would be out there and would suddenly find himself awestruck. So he started to shoot while he swam and to document his daily pilgrimage. Notebooks, DART tickets, ear plugs all formed part of his first exhibition of sea photos. He even sold a number of signed jars of Forty Foot water: a sure sign of ‘making it’ in the art world! Laughing he says “Yeah I suppose it’s a profession as well as a recreation”, adding that he’s known as “the wave guy” in that world.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: inherit; color: #383f44; font-family: 'Open Sans', 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Roboto, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 1.1em; line-height: 1.8em;">
“Yesterday was swim number 4,845,” he says with a smile. “It’s very anal, I know.” But it keeps his engine ticking over physically, artistically and even financially. “I’ve had loads of shows,” he says, modestly. “I have a show touring the UK at the moment and I’m in a big show in the US next month. I never intended it to become art, let alone take over my life,” he says adamantly. “Talk about mission creep.” But it was such a good antidote to stress. “It’s fucking incredible, I just feel amazingly good afterwards.”</div>

It’s not without its perils though. Barry says he was out before Christmas on a rough day and he saw a swell coming. He swam furiously towards the steps. But he didn’t quite make it. “I got spun around the railing, caught in what they call a ‘washing machine’. It was like a whirlpool. I thought ‘that’s it’.” He said he had gone in with a head full of financial woes. But when he finally managed to get out, his priorities were quite different.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: inherit; color: #383f44; font-family: 'Open Sans', 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Roboto, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 1.1em; line-height: 1.8em;">
Gary too had his scary tales. “You get a false sense of security on glorious days. And you think I’ll go just go a little further and further. And then suddenly you realise ‘Jesus I’ve gone way too far’.”</div>

Staying calm and “luck” are what saved the day for him. Gary also really enjoys the social aspect. “There’s all walks of life. All different backgrounds and ages. Taking your clothes off too is a great leveller. A really good bar is an apt description,” he says.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: inherit; color: #383f44; font-family: 'Open Sans', 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Roboto, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 1.1em; line-height: 1.8em;">
It seems the only unruly customers are the seals. People are feeding them so they are coming in close to shore. “The alpha male is huge. Jesus Christ he is huge. And he will head-butt you. I don’t know if it’s play or not but it’s terrifying,” Gary says. “He’s the size of a small cow. And he pops up looking at you. No fun!”.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: inherit; color: #383f44; font-family: 'Open Sans', 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Roboto, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 1.1em; line-height: 1.8em;">
Despite it all, everyone says it’s well worth it. So if you want a taste of the fabled wit, banter and camaraderie of Dublin pubs but don’t want to drink, try a trip out to the Forty Foot. And if you balk at jumping into the Baltic waters, then just sit back and enjoy the company and, of course, the stunning views of Dublin Bay. A great way to spend a day.</div>

FOR ALL HIS RAILINGS ABOUT MUSLIM REFUGEES DONALD TUMP IS ACTUALLY ANATOLIA MAN</div>
<div style="font-family: inherit; margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
It's the standard con. Blame the other. Warn the mark about the ones over there. Don't trust them. Implicit in the cautionary tale is the presumption that you can trust us not them. It's a standard trope that any world traveller, well worldly wise world traveller, will instantly recognise. My old girlfriend <a class="profileLink" data-hovercard="/ajax/hovercard/user.php?id=100001292645424" href="https://www.facebook.com/anne.moran.315" style="color: #365899; cursor: pointer; font-family: inherit; text-decoration: none;">Anne Moran</a> n I had a term for it no matter where we were. In fact it became short hand for scam artists -apologies to all the honest decent Turks in question: Anatolia man. Out backpacking the Turkish coast in those halcyon days before the beaches - we left our safe European homes for - were bespoiled by the bodies of Syrian kids, the gravest threat we faced were the herds of men attracted siren like by Anne's red hair. And adding to the allure of the red hair was Anne's spellbinding asset.<br />"Ms Anne you look like Ms Pam."<br />That's Pam from Dallas.<br />Far away Dallas. But that was cool. Sanitised. Safe. American Dream.<br />No. No. Come here Ms Anne. (I was on the borderline of being tolerated and ignored. And I also seemed to serve as a guide to what was sexually acceptable: if I put my arm around Anne, beach Lothario felt he could too. But every move came with a cautionary tale:<br />Beware Anatolia Man.<br />Anne's legions of admirers and Anatolia cautioners grew vastly when food poisoning laid me low.<br />Back on my feet two days later, it was near impossible to pay for a meal or groceries.<br />Everything was a present for Ms Anne. The more genuine the gift the less intense the warning about Anatolia man.<br />A couple of his greatest foes, however, rendered our life impossible. They wld follow our every move. They wld lie beside Anne on the beach whispering sweet warnings of Antolia man. Out snorkelling with conveniently loaned flippers n mask, I wld look to shore to see Anne's red hair sandwiched on her towel by two black haired gents. Both whispering terrifying tales of Anatolia man as they inched up the towel.<br />Too much.<br />The next day we hopped the bus to Istanbul.<br />20 hrs later we walk out of an Istanbul bus station.<br />Only to hear a taxi horn blaring.<br />"Ms Anne, Ms Anne," a man screamed.<br />"Beware Anatolia man!" the taxi driver screamed.<br />Actually that's a lie.<br />He screamed<br />"Ms Anne I meet you in Dacha," referring to the coastal down we had just left.<br />During a wonderful week in Istanbul, we ended up in a late night bar. A wild dive joint. Dwarfs dancing on tables. A reek of underworld. Around the same time I noticed our dodgy drinking partners were packing pistols I realised they were not asking me the price of my hotel room. But how much for a sojourn with Ms Anne in a hotel room. As I informed Anne Anatolia man was actually at the table, bad lieutenant was warning me about the local Anatolia men. I forgot his name.<br />But we got out of that scrape and many others around the world.<br />In far flung villages in the Vietnamese highlands, it was beware Saigon Man. And Saigon scammers wld say beware Cambodia Man.<br />And always throughout the following decade or so, whether talking to the local policeman or late night tuk tuk driver, we wld the supposed friendly warning that actually signalled dodgy intent.<br />Beware Anatolia Man.<br />Watch out for the other, I caution, as I rob you.<br />So when it comes to that racist, rapist lying cheating, daughter leching, hate spewing, tax hiding piece of filth that is <a class="_58cn" data-ft="{"tn":"*N","type":104}" href="https://www.facebook.com/hashtag/donaldtrump?source=feed_text&story_id=10154512133718584" style="color: #365899; cursor: pointer; font-family: inherit; text-decoration: none;"><span class="_5afx" style="direction: ltr; font-family: inherit;"><span aria-label="hashtag" class="_58cl _5afz" style="color: #4267b2; font-family: inherit;">#</span><span class="_58cm" style="font-family: inherit;">DonaldTrump</span></span></a>, I got one thing to say - and with apologies to the good people of Asian Turkey:<br />BEWARE ANATOLIA MAN</div>
